where is the house republican conference now in their mentality on making a deal on the fiscal cliff, and is there reason for optimism if something does get produced from the senate sometime today? >> you know, i think there is reason for optimism, first of all, because, chris, you have to remember, we actually passed as part of our budget in the spring an alternative to this possess. we did another such bill in august, and then before we left prayer to plan b, we passed a third bill, so we're glad to see the senate move, and when they do, we'll have something to sink our teeth into. we might not necessarily accept it as-is. there will be some amending, i suppose, lots of debate, but i think that the house is ready to act. the difference between a senate proposal now and plan b last week is that this time we will not need to pass it only on republican votes. we'll have democrats who will be moving forward, and so i think you'll get a vote. >> let me follow-up on that, because i think it's an important point. john boehner's speakership took a hit. you can debate how big or how small. h

that this fiscal cliff thing is too much austerity so quickly. at one point. so what is the worst case scenario at this point? >> well, austerity works both ways. austerity for the public sector is stimulus for the private sector. it's the same money, you're just shifting it from one pocket to another. spending cuts would be very reassuring to the markets. you're hearing that if government spending is cut, that money disappears from the economy. that's not correct. that money has to be cycled into the private sector. that's a good thing. so austerity in terms of shrinking the size of government, or the growth of government would be very healthy for the economy. austerity in europe is something elsewhere because of the euro situation you have to cut people's wages to make those countries competitive again. that's a completely different issue, austerity in terms of reversing the tremendous increase we've had in government spending over the last four years, we've gone from 2.9 trillion to 3.8 trillion in 30-odd percent increase in four years. and th
